Do you want to write a review article for the journal?

Review Papers are a new and exciting feature of the journal, providing state-of-the-art overviews of the literature. They provide valuable summaries for both teaching and research purposes.  If you are interested in writing one about an established or emerging area of medical sociology, we are seeking short (one-page) proposals from potential authors.
 
For an example, see:
 
Annemarie Jutel (2009) Sociology of diagnosis: a preliminary review. Sociology of Health and Illness 31, 2: 278-299
 
Send proposals to Steven Wainwright (review articles editor):
